Haunted Ohio

The information provided here is no way intended to promote tresspassing, loitering, or anything unlawful, but only for informational use. Permission should always be obtained before entering non-public sights & any hunts should always be preformed in a professional & courtious manner. Please have respect for not only the owners of the property, but also for any spirits left behind. If walking in a cemetery, please do not walk on the graves. This is considered a true sign of disrespect. One thing that I witnessed while walking through one, was seeing a man let his dog relieve himself on someones grave! Clearly this man was not respectful in the least. Please treat others, dead or alive, with the same courtesy that you would appreciate.

Our team is from Preble County Ohio which is in on the southern west side of the state. mPreble County consist of rural towns & small villages with Eaton being the largest area. It was founded in 1806. Unfortunately for Eaton residents (as well as the rest of Preble County), in 1849, a cholera epidemic struck the community. Approximately one-half of the residents fled the community. Of the remaining 600 people, approximately 120 people died in a time span of 48 days. Many people do not know about this. There was so many dead that they had to start burying the bodies wherever they could. Many houses & businesses now stand on these unmarked graves. Eaton & surrounding areas are also known for their many battles with the Native Americans, such as at Fort Saint Clair, & a slaughter at Devil's Backbone. Many locals report strange activity.

Devils Backbone There is a crooked gorge along state route 725 in Camden,Ohio. Locals know it as " The Devil's Backbone". Sadly, this once beautiful land, has now been used as a dumping ground for local disrespecting people. There are tales of mass sightings of Native American ghosts that haunt the area. There were also numerous settlers who died upon moving to this area after the Natives were massacred. While there is controversy on whether the Native Americans buried there dead leaders, or out of fear of an unseen supernatural force, left them behind on the clifts of Devil's Backbone at the time of the massacre, one thing is certain, it's legend of being haunted. I have chosen to use info from the book "Preble County: Celebrating Our Heritage One Township At A Time As Told By Those Who Lived It", as I believe this to be the most reputable source. Story goes there was a massacre there with many Native Americans getting killed. Legend has it that Chief Little Turtle left a solemn warning for the white man when they were forced to move westward in the 1700's & early 1800's. It's told that some bones & toolsof the Natives royalty were buried on Backbone Hill (Devil's Backbone) & the white men were warned not to distur the burial site. To insure that the graves were left undisturbed, legend says that ghost scouts were delegated to patrol the site. Swift & merciless retribution would fall on all intruders who so much as touched a bone. In 1913 a bachelor farmer named Franklin Bourne, was found murdered & buried three feet deep in his garden. It was said that Bourne had plowed up an Indian grave & had been punished by the ghost scouts. A hired hand by the name Elwood Davis, was actually convicted of his murder, but many locals still clung to the curse of Little Turtle being the true reason. Our team has tried to investigate this area a little during day light. Due to the gorges, & clifts, this is not a safe place to investigate after dark, especially while weeds & overgrowth are hiding some of the clift edges & drop offs. While we were not able to catch any true evidence yet, there was a strange feeling of being watched. While using a PSB-7 Spirit box, (A device that scans through radio frequencies at a very rapid speed & believed by paranormal experts that it can be manipulated by spirits.) & darkness was falling upon us, we did hear "Beware", & "Go". While we have no proof that this was indeed something paranormal, we hope to return for a more indepth investigation in the near future. Another legend about this area is that of Sasquatch. It is said that it has been seen here as well as Woodland Trails Boyscout Camp, & along Seven Mile Creek (especially note worthy is the case of 1977 (The year of the Creature) in the vicinity of Old Camden Pike near U.S. 127 (see link for more info) . http://www.stockinghominidr.com/upload/Retrospective%20Schaffner.pdf

Fort Saint Clair State ParkLocated in Eaton,OH. The fort was built in 1791 during the Northwest Territory Indian War (1785-1795). It was built to to protect the area against Native American raids. On Nov. 6th 1792, the fort & troops outside the fort were attacked by 200 Native Americans under the leadership of Chief Little Turtle. Only 6 soldiers were killed, & it's unknown how many Natives lost their life that day. The 6 fallen soldiers are buried under what is now known as "The Whispering Oak". It's claimed that many people have heard whispering voices near this tree. Chris Woodyard has documented this park haunted in her book "Haunted Ohio". The area has been used as a park since 1923, & famous for it's Christmas light display called "Whispering Christmas" which was started in 1987. Our team has investigated this park a couple times now after dark (Get permission before entering after dark as the park is closed at this time). Both times we have experienced many personal experiences, from unexplained lights flashing over the battlefield, unexplained sounds, smells of smoke, odd sensations of very heavy air (almost to point of being hard to breath), & EVPs. Photo evidence has included stange mist, orbs, & a possible figure.

Sugar Valley,OHSugar Valley Ohio is said to be extremely haunted. Both marked and unmarked gravesites surround this countryside of Preble county Ohio. It's said that there were many battles that took place here between the Miami & the soldiers. Perhaps some are still lingering long after the smoke has settled. Also while this town is hardly viewed as a "town" anymore, consisting only of a few houses, a Methodist church, & an abandoned building, it used to be a very busy & happy little town. It consisted of a blacksmith shop, & a grocery/general store. Many travelers would come to shop & could also be found sitting on the front porch of the store, telling stories & visiting. They also had a half-way- house which did very well. People would stop here in their journey driving their cattle & hogs to Cincinnati. Perhaps some of these residents of old are still there, visiting with each other. The area between the Sugar Valley Methodist church and just past Longman road are said to be a paranormal haven of activity, also with many frequent EVP recordings along this area.

Note: Again, I have had personal experiences near this area. For 17 years I lived in a home not far from Sugar Valley. It was indeed haunted. Footsteps could be heard walking up & down the stairway & through the home, doors would unlock by themselves, the TV would go off & on by itself, & a bedroom door could be heard opening & closing. At one point, while putting my shoes on for school, I felt someone sit down on my bed beside me. As I looked, you could see an indentation on the bed as if someone had sat down. I was startled & stuck my arm out next to me. The air felt coldthere, not like the rest of the room which was a comfortable temperature. At times you could also feel "someone" watching you. My family & I got together, took authority over, & prayed. We never felt, heard, or had any experience on that property after that.Marsha- founder of Southern Ohio Supernatural

Fairmount Cemetery - Camden, OH 45311While growing up, I remember hearing rumors about the Fairmount cemetery. Rumor was that there was a certain spot with a slight incline. If you slowed down or stopped on this incline your bike would speed up or start moving on it's own & over the incline. As a kid, I went with an adult friend & we tried to find this spot. We did find an area that not only had a slight incline, but did give a sensation of being pulled over it. Was it something paranormal, or just an optical illusion of an incline? At this time, it hasn't been proven either way. While we haven't returned with bikes, what I can tell you is that our team has investigated this cemetery several times. We have found that something paranormal does appear to be there. E.V.P.s (electronic voice phenomena) have been captured, as well as orbs, ghostly mist, & what a appears to be a strong spirit energy cloud (commonly known to as ectoplasm). Note: Please always be respectful if investigating a cemetery. It is considered very disrespectful to walk on the graves. We also believe firmly in treating others (dead or alive) with the same respect that you would appreciate. For this reason it is our belief that provoking is not only dangerous, but a highly rude practice.

It was founded in 1806 by steadfast abolitionists & a leading force in the underground railroad. The Fairhaven & Morning Sun churches were also part of this.

His land was aquired by the state of Ohio in 1947. The land was cleared & the 625 acre lake was constructed by a chain gang of honor status prison inmates, Rumor has it that these imates were treated very badly & that there may have been deaths as a result. The prison camp now serves as the park administration offices & nature center. The Adena Indians (mound biulders) also lived in this area in 500 B.C. - 400 A.D. & built several ceremonial mounds there. after the Adena indians disappeared, the Miami natives settled in & started a trading post & village on what is now park grounds. It's said that if you watch closely, you will see flashing lights that are not fireflies, but may actually be the torches of Chief Little Turtle's warriors. Rumor has it that the kitchen area & parts of the lodge are also haunted.

Milford RdLocated just outside of Oxford, the story goes that two forbidden lovers would meet up a certain driveway along Milford Road. The girl would take her father's car and pull out to the end of the road, flashing her headlights three times to signal her boyfriend to come over. One night as he began down the road, a young boy was riding his bicycle in the road. The boyfriend, riding a motorcycle, didn't see the boy until it was too late. Both the boy and the boyfriend died. The girl later hang herself in the barn, of which, remnants remain. It is said that if you go to the spot where the girl would signal her boyfriend and flash your headlights three times toward the road, you can see small flashing red lights (the reflectors of the bicycle) and then a motorcycle headlight coming down the road. many report that this is indeed a true haunting that they have been able to witness. we do not recommend hunting for this though as residents are not friendly to the idea of ghost seekers & police are said to search the area frequently.

Mudhouse Mansion is a haunted house located outside Lancaster, Ohio. According to locals in Lancaster, the house was built in the early 1800s by a government official who lived there after the Civil War.... the man still kept slaves in the mansion, even though it was illegal. It seems this man didn't abide by the law and kept his slaves locked up in an outbuilding at night.

He treated his slaves very poorly and conditions were so bad that one slave started building a tunnel underneath the wall of the outbuilding. He dug a little every night after the lights in the mansion had gone out and the slave owner and his family had gone to sleep. Eventually his tunnel was completed and he squeezed himself down the small opening and came up on the other side of the wall. In the dead of night, he crept toward the mansion, slipped the lock on the back door, tip-toed up the staircase and killed everyone inside. In the morning, locals discovered what had happened, but all the slaves had escaped and no one was ever charged with the crime.

The house lay vacant for years afterwards and neighbors heard strange groans and shrieks coming from within the empty mansion. Everyone believed it was haunted by the ghosts of the slave owner and his family. Nobody dared to enter the menacing looking building.

According to local legend, a man actually did buy the house in 1892 and moved in with his wife and their three children. Neighbors saw the family moving in, unloading their belongings from trucks and carrying them into the house. And then...nothing. Neighbors never saw them again. The family never left the house. Neighbors thought it was very odd for a family of five to spend all their time indoors.When one neighbor looked out her bedroom window, all she could make out was the figure of a woman, dressed all in white, standing at the second floor window. The figure wasn't doing anything, just standing there, staring at her. When the neighbor looked again, the following day, she saw the figure again, standing in the same position. Every day, whenever the neighbor looked at Mudhouse Mansion, the figure was always there. Standing in exactly the same position.

On the tenth day, she called the police and asked them to investigate. When policemen broke into the mansion and climbed the stairs to the second floor, they were greeted by a terrible sight. All five family members were hanging lifeless from the ceiling. They were all dressed in white nightgowns. It appeared that they had taken their own lives. The figure the neighbor had seen was the mother of the family. She hadn't been standing at the window, she had been hanging there...for ten whole days. After that, nobody would live in the house and it has remained vacant to this day. People still come to visit the old mansion but the current owner will not allow anyone to enter the property. She is afraid that if anyone goes in, they will never come out alive. Local children call it "Mary's House" and tell each other that the famous Bloody Mary of legend grew up there. People who live in the area say that on cold, dark nights, you can sometimes still see the figure of a woman, all in white, standing motionless at the second floor window.
